      13dirty666 and then once they achieve fame you'll be ranting on about how you want the "old" Gang of Youths back...

    • @13dirty666
      @13dirty666 9 років тому +8

      Philip J. Fry huh? They've already changed quite a bit in the three years I've listened to them and I haven't been disappointed yet. If your perception on everyone who is proactive about finding new music is they hate when something goes then you are very wrong. Nice random, uncalled for personal attack but it's only showing your own insecurities. I love plenty of bands which have changed their style of time, like Radiohead, U2, Coldplay, Queens of the Stone Age, Killers, INXS, Cure etc. and sometimes I don't like the direction a band changes to. So what, so does everyone else.

    One thing is a good cover, another is to capture the soul of the original song. This cover does the latter so perfectly, making this one of the best fucking songs this year.

    @Str8OttaCompton 9 років тому +15

    Well shit man, the lead vocalist broke a string in there somewhere yet everything sounded fantastic all the way through. I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't actually SEEN him pull out the busted one at the very end, after no less than 15 viewings of this video.
    I've never seen such a unanimously affirmative comment section, either. I'm all about this, I'll go buy the album. Well did, boys.

  • @connorwood5493
    @connorwood5493 9 років тому +8

    The emotion in this cover is unreal. It makes me want to hop in a car, crank this up to max volume, and drive until I run out of gas just to see where I end up.

  • @Gherkinz
    @Gherkinz 9 років тому +26

    So much build up, so much energy, so much wow. My favorite for the year so far.

  • @CarbonSolutions
    @CarbonSolutions Рік тому +28

    I keep watching this and thinking that if the singer starts strumming about 2bpm too fast at the opening, this whole song collapses halfway through when the drummers can’t maintain those 16ths at the end. Absolutely epic.

    • @themisfortunecookie
      @themisfortunecookie 9 місяців тому +9

      I was thinking the exact same thing. He kept time perfectly throughout, which is not as easy as one might think. Especially when you take in account that he is also singing. This is a great cover. You should check out their other Like a Version when they cover The Middle East song Blood. It's spot on as well.

  • @thatdudefromthebackseat7675

  • @chorthithian
    @chorthithian 9 років тому +28

    HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
    IM MINDBLOWN!!!!!!
    like, omg, im literally spechless. the way the song gradually increased in energy was so god damn amazing! so many times do people attempt this technique of gradually increasing energy, but to do it flawlessly in a 7-minute long song?? i can COUNT with my fingers the number of people that can do it, to such a degree of perfection that they make the song appear to be 2 minutes long instead of 7 as they drive you through the most beautiful path that the song paints.
    jesus christ. in the original, the piano is like a base element in the song, and here, there is no piano, but the most creative awesome guitar sounds and perfectly overlapped bass and main guitar and voice that it completely shines out as a perfect alternative to the original song. add to that the freaking energy that the drums take at like minute 4:30, how the hell is that drummer even achieving such a speed? well, honestly, when in the heat of the moment, holy fuck even i could do that.
    never have i ever seen a cover of this quality; of this perfection that simply overwhelms me. this is PRECISELY what a cover should be like, jesus guys, this video just changed my concept of cover even. Murphy would shed a tear.

    • @13dirty666
      @13dirty666 9 років тому +5

      they are a brutally honest band. They've only released a few songs but theres a few tearjerkers. According to their lead singer, he wrote most of the songs about his girlfriend who had a terminal illness

  • @jpjbassking

  • @ColinBrandtYYC
    @ColinBrandtYYC Рік тому +24

    The way that this song - right from the opening guitar line through to the crescendo - draws a beautiful line from Joy Division right through to LCD Soundsystem really unlocked something in my brain tonight. What a cover.

  • @sugar-rushsue5270
    @sugar-rushsue5270 6 місяців тому +2

    So glad to see this back at last. This cover has gone un-known for years - which I’m assuming was because LCD or their label didn’t want it on UA-cam? Hopefully it will get the attention it deserves now.

  • @johnarmstrong9282
    @johnarmstrong9282 6 місяців тому +2

    Why is this such a great cover?
    The guitars! So different than the original, the atmospheric effects are so cool layered on top of the driving beat.
    But like all great covers, it honors what made the original great. This song needs to build and build and boy do Gang of Youths nail it.

    That was great - I think a lot of artists who get the opportunity to appear on like a version take it for granted and play some bullshit, slowed down version of a song or wose.. These videos can generate millions of views so it's good to see these guys put the time in to make something worthwhile.

    That's how it starts
    We go back to your house
    We check the charts
    And start to figure it out
    And if it's crowded, all the better
    Because we know we're gonna be up late
    But if you're worried about the weather
    Then you picked the wrong place to stay
    That's how it starts
    And so it starts
    You switch the engine on
    We set controls for the heart of the Sun
    One of the ways we show our age
    And if the Sun comes up, if the Sun comes up, if the Sun comes up
    And I still don't wanna stagger home
    Then it's the memory of our betters
    That are keeping us on our feet
    You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan
    And the next five years trying to be with your friends again
    You\'re talking 45 turns just as fast as you can
    Yeah, I know it gets tired, but it\'s better when we pretend
    It comes apart
    The way it does in bad films
    Except in parts
    When the moral kicks in
    Though when we're running out of the drugs
    And the conversation's winding away
    I wouldn't trade one stupid decision
    For another five years of lies
    You drop the first ten years just as fast as you can
    And the next ten people who are trying to be polite
    When you're blowing eighty-five days in the middle of France
    Yeah, I know it gets tired only where are your friends tonight?
    And to tell the truth
    Oh, this could be the last time
    So here we go
    Like a sail's force into the night
    And if I made a fool, if I made a fool, if I made a fool
    On the road, there's always this
    And if I'm sewn into submission
    I can still come home to this
    And with a face like a dad and a laughable stand
    You can sleep on the plane or review what you said
    When you're drunk and the kids leave impossible tasks
    You think over and over, "hey, I'm finally dead"
    Oh, if the trip and the plan come apart in your hand
    You look contorted on yourself your ridiculous prop
    You forgot what you meant when you read what you said
    And you always knew you were tired, but then
    Where are your friends tonight?
    Where are your friends tonight?
    Where are your friends tonight?
    If I could see all my friends tonight
    If I could see all my friends tonight
    If I could see all my friends tonight
    If I could see all my friends tonight
